Chapter 1258
"Adjutant Chen, this Mr. Ye is the man I brought here. Do you think I am also an assassin?"
At this time, Shen Yishi's voice came from outside the encirclement.
Although Shen Yishi could not figure out the specific situation for the time being as to why Nikon was assassinated and why the young sergeant was also regarded as an assassin by Adjutant Chen.
But there was one thing he was very clear about, that is, Adjutant Chen wanted to find someone to take the blame.
Hearing Shen Yishi's words, Adjutant Chen couldn't help but frowned. Originally, in his opinion, Ye Wushuang and Ye Xiao were the most suitable to take the blame for this matter.
From his point of view, the two may have high martial arts skills, but their status is not high.
The young sergeant was recently transferred to the villa by Nikon as a guard. He didn't know his specific background, but his rank was far lower than his own. This kind of person is obviously an excellent scapegoat.
And Ye Xiao, needless to say, is just an unheard-of little person.
However, Adjutant Chen did not dare to classify Shen Yishi as one of them. This man was not only familiar with Nikon, but also knew many big figures in the National War Department. Who would believe that he was an assassin?
"Lawyer Shen, I will give you face today and take your people away!" After a brief thought, Adjutant Chen decided to let Ye Xiao go, so as not to provoke Shen Yishi and cause himself unnecessary trouble.
Anyway, there is still one person who can take the blame for him, which is barely enough.
Hearing this, Shen Yishi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, just when he was about to let Ye Xiao leave this place of trouble with him and make plans after returning.
Ye Xiao suddenly spoke up, "Adjutant Chen, this brother was also fighting with the assassin just now. I believe everyone present has seen this."
"It's not appropriate for you to think that he is in the same group with the assassin!"
Ye Xiao also guessed at this time that Adjutant Chen wanted to push Ye Wushuang out to take the blame. Although he didn't understand why Ye Wushuang was ostracized even though he wore a guard uniform, Ye Xiao felt it necessary to help Ye Wushuang.
This cousin probably rarely dealt with secular people, so she didn't know how dangerous these people were. If she was framed as an assassin who assassinated the military leader, Ye Wushuang would definitely suffer a great loss as he had consumed more than half of his physical strength and was injured.
If he took action himself, he could let Ye Wushuang kill him, but in that case, Shen Yishi and Tan Lang would inevitably be implicated, so Ye Xiao could only try to communicate with words.
Hearing Ye Xiao's words, the face of the adjutant Chen instantly darkened.
"Boy, you are still trying to get ahead of me, right? If it weren't for you being brought here by Lawyer Shen, you wouldn't be able to leave today, you know?"
"Now you are a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and you are still here worrying about eating radishes and teaching me how to do things, do you have such a big face?"
The adjutant Chen was already a little unhappy about letting Ye Xiao run away and losing a scapegoat. Now seeing that Ye Xiao was still so ignorant of the current situation, how could he bear it.
Shen Yishi was also a little confused at this time, not knowing why Ye Xiao would stand up and speak for this soldier in the military headquarters.
Did the two know each other before? Or were they both warriors and had some sympathy for each other?
But he could see that letting him take Ye Xiao away was the biggest face that the adjutant Chen could give him, and it was also his bottom line. It was almost impossible to get this soldier out.
But despite this, Shen Yishi still tried his best to think about whether there was any way to help Ye Wushuang speak up.
"Young man, don't you defend yourself?" Ye Xiao didn't care about the ridicule of Adjutant Chen at this time, but looked at Ye Wushuang and said.
He just noticed that since the old man in black ran away, this cousin has remained silent about the unfavorable situation here, and has not said a word. This made Ye Xiao a little confused. Does this cousin have any trump cards?
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang raised his eyebrows and glared at Ye Xiao fiercely, as if he was very unhappy with the name Ye Xiao called.
Ye Xiao was speechless in an instant. People are about to arrest you as an assassin, and you have no reaction at all. I just shouted a name that is not wrong, but you got angry. What is this!
"Come here, arrest that traitor. If he resists, shoot him!" Adjutant Chen also lost his patience at this time. He waved his hand and issued an arrest order.
The next moment after the order was issued, dozens of military headquarters guards all pointed their guns at Ye Wushuang, and even some machine guns mounted on the attic also locked on Ye Wushuang.
Ye Xiao frowned slightly, struggling whether to fight and rush out with Ye Wushuang. However, Ye Wushuang, who was locked by many firepower,But he remained calm.
This made Ye Xiao even more confused.
But soon, Ye Xiao's doubts were answered. Just as the guards of the military headquarters closed the encirclement and took a step towards Ye Wushuang, suddenly, a deafening voice like a bell came from the gate of the villa.
"Stop it!"
Hearing this voice, Adjutant Chen suddenly shuddered. After a second of stunned silence, he quickly stopped the guards and ran towards the direction where the voice came from.
At this time, Ye Xiao couldn't help but slightly tilt his head and look in the direction of the person coming. He saw a middle-aged general who was also wearing the uniform of the Xiangguo War Department, but wearing a gold-rimmed military cap, striding in.
Behind him, there were more than a dozen soldiers with similar attire.
Ye Xiao could see that these people, apart from their military caps being different from those of ordinary soldiers, were all warriors from the Transformation Realm to the Dan Realm, and the middle-aged man was the strongest, being a peak Dan Realm warrior.
"I greet Deputy Commander Seven!" After Adjutant Chen came to the middle-aged general, he stood at attention and performed a standard Xiangguo military salute.
At this time, Shen Yishi came to Ye Xiao's side and whispered, "This Seven is the deputy commander of the Royal Guards, and he is quite upright."
Shen Yishi briefly introduced Ye Xiao. He had just noticed that Ye Xiao seemed to be trying to help Ye Wushuang escape. He said this at this time to try to reassure Ye Xiao and not act rashly.
Royal Guards?
Ye Xiao, who had dealt with the royal family of the Western Continent a lot, naturally knew the nature of this guard, which was roughly equivalent to the ancient imperial guards.
But he was a little curious, how did the Royal Guards come so quickly? Even if this is the capital of Xiang State, the guards have patrol duties, but it is impossible for them to come faster than the support that Adjutant Chen is seeking!
Seven glanced at Adjutant Chen, and then asked expressionlessly: "What happened here? Why did you fire a gun?"
"Report to Commander Seven, the head of the Nikon Army was assassinated, and I am asking people to arrest the assassin's accomplices!"
According to the military rank of Xiang State, Seven is several levels higher than him. Adjutant Chen naturally did not dare to hide anything, so he told everything.
"What! The head of the Nikon Army was assassinated!" Hearing this, Seven's thick black eyebrows were immediately twisted together, and his face was extremely solemn.
